Title
Direct 3D pose estimation of a planar target
Abstract
Estimating 3D pose of a known object from a given 2D image is an important problem with numerous studies for robotics and augmented reality applications. While the state-of-the-art Perspective-n-Point algorithms perform well in pose estimation, the success hinges on whether feature points can be extracted and matched correctly on targets with rich texture. In this work, we propose a robust direct method for 3D pose estimation with high accuracy that performs well on both textured and textureless planar targets. First, the pose of a planar target with respect to a calibrated camera is approximately estimated by posing it as a template matching problem. Next, the object pose is further refined and disambiguated with a gradient descent search scheme. Extensive experiments on both synthetic and real datasets demonstrate the proposed direct pose estimation algorithm performs favorably against state-of-the-art feature-based approaches in terms of robustness and accuracy under several varying conditions.
